08/19/2004 09:57 AMAP - Seiko Epson Corp. is developing a flying robot that looks like a
miniature helicopter and is about the size of a giant bug. The company
hopes it'll prove handy for security, disaster rescue and space
exploration.

08/19/2004 09:04 PMA recent press
release from Epson about the FR-II micro robot has generated a lot
of story submissions lately. The FR-II is powered by two ultrasonic
motors which drive opposing rotors. The tiny robot is just 136mm x
85mm,
weigh 12.3 grams including two gyros, batteries, bluetooth link, and a
digital camera. It has a flight time of about 3 minutes. You can see
photos and read more about the robot at the BBC, space.com,
and Slashdot.

R/C helicopter and not a true robot, weighs in at only 6.9 grams.

Apple's huge success with the Mac
mini's small form factor and low price has caused the company to look
more closely at making computers in a variety of small sizes. That
push was reflected in a long segment of today's press conference, with
Steve Jobs laying out the reception the Mac mini has received with
users and the press. He then jumped into the product announcements,
and oh, what announcements! Just as the iPod broke from the pack of
MP3 players and took over that market, these diminutive new Macs - the
micro, nano, and pico - promise to change expectations of what
computers are and how we use them. Steve Jobs said that Apple
anticipates shipping all three models in the second half of 2005, in
time for the holiday shopping season.

Pixelito: Even Lighter Helicopter
Pixelito: Even Lighter Helicopter
08/19/2004 09:44 AM
So just a little
while ago I mentioned that Epson had created the world's smallest
flying robot. And while that may technically be the case, depending on
how you define robot and if you define smallest by weight or by length
or whatnot, this Pixelito helicopter hand-crafted by Alexander Van de
Rostyne is pretty amazing. The frame is a single, twisted tube of 1mm
carbon (fiber?), minus the tail boom which is 1.33mm in diameter,
powered my a 6mm motor from the inside of a pager. It's remote
controlled by infrared, and weighs in at a total 6.9 grams (stupid
Most Bestest Whatevers titles beside,the Epson robot is 12.3 grams,
although it has more features, too).
The Pixelito is the pinacle in a long line of tiny helicopters Alex
has designed, but he is starting to question how much smaller they can
go, due to the difficulty modellers will have constructing small
machines. I'm confident that love will find a way, however.
And how can you hate on anyone who films their tiny, R/C
helicopters with a hamster? I'm fairly sure that's scientifically
impossible. (Thanks, Sebastian!)

Loic got all sorts of hackers, entrprenuers and folks interested in
micro-content to show up.
And here's me and Loic at SixApart - Europe. I also got to see JY

I hopped down to Paris for less than 24 hr and now I'm back in

VNC By Phone, Hitachi's micro-VNC

KDDI and Hitachi Systems and Services have teamed
up to offer a new software/service called "micro-VNC" for KDDI's au
phones. VNC is synonymous with remote desktop control for many, and
micro-VNC brings the concept to mobile phones in a way I haven't seen
before. Compatible with Windows, Mac and Linux, micro-VNC is currently
compatible with more modern au mobile phones. I can't really say what
sort of framerates you'll be getting from Half-Life 2 trying to play
it on your phone, but one thing is certain — Hitachi
"apologize[s] for your inconvenience from the bottom of [their] heart"
that "an English page is unavailable." I'm touched, Hitachi.

Micro-Content Business
Micro-Content Business
02/05/2005 09:16 PM
What interests me about micro-content business is that the dynamics
of micro-content
business differs drastically between free contents versus paid
contents. Free
contents are consumables. Paid contents are properties.
Thinking of paid content as property is an emotional
perspective. I paid for
it so I must own it even though it cost me only a quarter and
its existance is
tenuous. Thus I think the best business models for paid
content business must leverage
this human weakness.
